Official 2018 England Cricket Trading Cards launch in UK

The ‘Limited Edition’ nature of the collection adds to the appeal, as does the high-quality production values, with the Stuart Broad ‘Patch Cards’ - featuring a patch of Broad’s Test jersey worn during the 2017 South Africa home series - likely to be particularly sought after. Every store ONLY receives two retail boxes, so once sold they are gone.

Tap’N’Play has secured an ECB and International Cricket Council licensing contract to go alongside its longstanding relationship with Cricket Australia.

Tap’N’Play Managing Director Neil Armstrong is looking forward to building on this initial ‘Official 2018 England Cricket Trading Cards’ with a series of exciting releases in future years:

“The back to back events of the ICC Cricket World Cup and the 2019 Ashes are an exciting time for the UK and we look forward to providing something special for both of these major events.

“Tap’N’Play includes women athletes in every single release. Our Australian Football series showcases the national women’s team and our New Zealand Rugby series features both the Black Fern Sevens and Fifteen teams. This year our Big Bash League (BBL) Cricket sets will feature 40% women. We are leading the way for other companies to provide gender balance in Trading Card collecting.”

Tap’N’Play limited edition ‘Official 2018 England Cricket Trading Cards’ will be available in shops from July 18, priced at £1.50 per pack.
